WHAT AIS THE NATION /?
The Average Length of Lie De-
creasing-Not Pestilence-
Not Famine-All our
own Fault.

MODERN COOKING AND MODERN
LIVING have brought it on. 1t
comes upon us unawares. The
patients have pains about the
chest and sides, and sometimes
in the back. They feel dull and
sleepy; the mouth has a bad
taste, especially in the morning.
A sort of sticky slime collects
about the teeth. The appetite is
poor. There is a feeling like a
heavy load on the stomach;
sometimes faint, all-gone sensa-
ton at the pit Of the stomach
which food does not satisfy. The
eyes are sunken, the hands and
feet become cold and feel clam
my. After a while a cough sets
in, at first dry, but after few
months it is attended with a
greenish colored expectoration.
The patient feels tired all the
while, and sleep does not seem
to afford any rest. After a time
he becomes nervous, irritable
and gloomy, and has evil fore
bodings. There is a giddiness, a
sort of whirling sensation in the
head when rising up suddenly.
The bowels become costive the
skin is dry and hot at times ;
the blood becomes thick and
stagnant the whites of the eyes
become tinged with yellow the
kidney secretions become scanty
and high colored, depositing a
sediment after standing. There
is frequently splitting up of the
food, sometimes with a sour taste
and sometimes with a sweetish
taste ; this is frequently attend
ed with palpitation of the heart
and Asthmatic symptoms -; the
vision becomes impaired, with
spots before the eyes; there is a
feeling of great prostration and
weakness. All of these symp-
toms are in turn present. 1t is
thought that nearly one-half Of
our population has this disease in
some of its varied forms. Shak-
er Extract of Roots (SeigePs
Syrup changes the ferments of
the Digestive organs so as to con-
vert the food we eat into a form
that will give nourishment to the
feeble body, and good health is
the consequence. The effect of
this remedy is simply marvellous.
Millions upon millions of bottles
have been sold in this country,
and the testimonials in favor of
its curative powers are over
whelming. Hundreds of social
ed diseases under various names
are the rusult of indigestion, and
when this one trouble is remov-
ed the other diseases vanish, for
they are but symptoms of the
real malady.
Testimonials from thousands
of people speaking highly of its
curative properties prove this
beyond a doubt. Sold by drug
gists.

Butter in Greece,

Butter, except in Athens, is not known
in Greece, but in spring the milk Of
sheep or goats is boiled, allowed to sour,
then put into the skin of the goat pre-
pared for the purpose. Two men take
this, shake it back and forth, then pour
the milk into large wooden bowl. A
thick white foam of cream is formed;
this is sold as butter. Chicago Times.

ward movement followed, and under the
lead of Lackawana advances Of from W to
IA per cent. were made. After that time,
however, the market became Gull, and
though prices were we'll maintained, there
was no special feature whatever to the deal
ings. A fractional decline, in which New
England was made conspicuous, occurred at
about O'Clock, but this was followed by
utter stagnation, and it was not until the last
hour that anything like animation was dis
played, when slight weakness was developed
and the close was quiet though heavy at
close to the opening figures. The final
changes are irregular, though declines are in
